IMPROVEMENT IN PARLOR COOKlNG-STOVES.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, ELISHA CHASE, of the city of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new Improvement in Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, in which Figure 1 is a Vertical view; Figs. 2 and 3, transverse sections.

I construct my stoves of any convenient size of cast-iron or a part of sheet-iron, oval form, (or square,) the usual shape of sittingroom or parlor stoves, below the horizontal plate, (shown at C,) which plate I make with a hole for a lid at each end and flue-holes of sufficient size far enough from each end to leave room for convenientsized cooking-places. I attach the flues (shown at A A) to the back of the stove and rivet them to plate 0. The oven is between the flues A A. The sectional doors or wings I hang on the back of the stove, so they will open and shut over the cookingplaces, and thus close them up when desirablea The entrance tlues (shown at e e) are put on the under side of the plate C, each side of the lids and attached to it, so as to admit the heat and smoke to go up the fines A A. I make the stoves with or without the entrance-fines, as persons may desire them also, with or without an oven. When without, the baking is done at the ends by closing the sectional doors. I also make those parts of the top plate directly over the lids to open or not, (as may suit purchasers,) as shown at D, Fig. 2,

What I claim to be my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- The combinatiomin parlor cooking-stoves, of the following parts, constructed as above shown, namely: the flues A A, their entrances e e, the horizontal plate 0, and the sectional doors or wings D D.
